can anyone give me some input as to how I would be able to add a back button that would take a customer back to the last page they came from, I would like to put the button in the product detail page.
Thanks in advance.

Try adding this...
{include file="buttons/button.tpl" button_title="BACK" href="javascript: history.go(-1);" style="button" js_to_href="Y"}

thanks JWait, that was great, I just inserted it into skin1/product.tpl and appeared
if you are able to give me some instructions as on how to seperate the buttom further away from the buy button, lets say to the right side of the details area.

There are several ways to get what you want..

You can add <img src="{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif" width="150" height="1" alt="" /> before the "back" code. That will put a 150 pixel space between your buttons.

You can make the table cell that the "back" code resides in align to the right... <td align="right">.

You can add a "AlignRight" class to skin1.css and make the cell align that way... <td class="AlignRight"> (add .AlignRight {align: right; } to skin1.css )

Not sure if im inserting this correctly but it is not spacing them apart. this is how i have it in product.tpl

PHP Code:

<tr>
 <td>{include file="buttons/add_to_cart.tpl" style="button" href="javascript: if(FormValidation()) document.orderform.submit();"}</td>
<td>
<img src="{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif" width="150" height="1" alt=""/>
{include file="buttons/button.tpl" button_title="BACK" href="javascript: history.go(-1);" style="button" js_to_href="Y"}
</td> 


it acutally offsets them up and down on the same line,
thanks for taking time to answer

I'm not sure why... probably yet another of x-cart's nested tables. Try ..

<tr>
 <td>{include file="buttons/add_to_cart.tpl" style="button" href="javascript: if(FormValidation()) document.orderform.submit();"}</td>
<td align="right">
<img src="{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif" width="150" height="1" alt=""/>
{include file="buttons/button.tpl" button_title="BACK" href="javascript: history.go(-1);" style="button" js_to_href="Y"}
</td>

Thank you in advance.
